SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA.- The Art Gallery of New South Wales presents "LOVE & DEATH: Art in the Age of Queen Victoria". Love & Death brings together some of the most dramatic paintings from late 19th century Britain - when Britannia ruled the waves, Queen Victoria had reigned for more than 50 years, and British industry and society were rushing headlong towards the tumultuous 20th century.
Rich in elaborate detail, sumptuous in colour and texture, and extravagantly emotional, the paintings were drawn from classical mythology and literature, ancient and modern history, contemporary life and morals.
Almost 70 paintings - the highlights of Victorian art in public and private collections in Australia and New Zealand are brought together for this magnificent exhibition.
Love & Death: Art in the Age of Queen Victoria is an Art Gallery of South Australia Travelling Exhibition. The exhibition will be on view at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney from Saturday 16 March to Sunday 12 May before travelling to Brisbane and Auckland.
